Chapter 457

Does Gloria Have Magic Powers?

The first word tried to take shape in Gloria‘s mouth and her lips parted, but it was just that the word
didn‘t come out.

Nydia hid the look of worry on her face and said, “Uh… Bryson was drunk when he was hit by a car.”

Jennifer‘s eyes were red and swollen, and she was unable to say anything.

She was standing aside with her head bowed.

Patrick‘s face was pale. “What did the doctor say?”

The crowd could only tell him the truth.

Patrick took a sharp breath and stumbled backward.

A vegetable?

He had only heard about this kind of disease, and no one around him had ever got it, but now his son
would likely be in a vegetative state.

Patrick‘s face was as white as a sheet. However, he could finally keep his cool, for he had gone
through a lot in decades.

He drew a deep breath and said, “We only have a month. Let‘s see what we can do.”

The crowd was silent and felt this fear deep inside them.

Patrick stayed in the hospital for the night. Jennifer regained her composure and walked to bim. “Mr.
Lloyd, no one is allowed to enter the ICU. The company needs you. I have nothing to do, so I’ll stay



here. If something comes up, I‘ll call you.”

Patrick‘s lips trembled with the effort to form words, but no words came out.

Gloria looked at Patrick. “I‘ll stay here too. Mr. Lloyd, you can go.”

Nydia nodded and said seriously, “I‘ll keep them company. The doctor will let us in tomorrow, and you
can come again. We‘ll take shifts here, and he‘ll be fine!”

Bryson‘s friends echoed and all looked serious and guilty.

Patrick sighed deeply in an attempt to fight back the tears.

He sat on the chair in the corridor, unable to say a word.

Misfortune struck his son fiercely, and he couldn‘t accept the reality.

Patrick didn‘t leave until everyone persuaded him to go back to work the next morning,

There was no point in gathering here and worrying about Bryson. Jennifer sent Bryson‘s friends away.

Only Jennifer, Gloria, and Nydia were left there.

Jennifer looked at Gloria. “Gloria, go back home and have a rest. I hope you can stay with him tonight.
Will you do it?”

Jennifer would love to take care of Bryson herself, but she knew she was not the one Bryson needed
the most. She had no time to waste.

Gloria stared at her, thought for a moment, and nodded. “Yeah, sure.”

Nydia sighed, “Then you come back tonight. Jennifer and I‘ll wait here.”



Gloria responded with a nod and left.

Gloria explained her situation to Sheila and asked for a leave of absence from work.

Sheila showed her understanding of her situation and let her have three days off.

The main reason was that Gloria was very competent in her work. It only took a few days for her to cut
so many deals. Even her colleagues didn’t make it.

Gloria went back home to take a break.

Just as Jennifer said, she had to get energized to take good care of Bryson in the evening.

Gloria didn‘t go to the office today. She didn‘t know that the White Group held a meeting because of her
absence.

Harold was there!

Everyone saw him!His appearance rocked the whole company.

Harold relayed Jordy‘s message to the top executives, who later passed it on to the chairman. Claude
needed time for deliberation, and Harold showed his understanding and left.

At this moment, they all looked solemn in the conference room.

Lucille began, unable to stop herself, “Does Gloria have magic powers? What on earth possessed Mr.
Collins to let her take charge of the project?“
